Scarr's Pizza
The Lower East Side slice shop milling its own flour, a retro-styled favorite of pizza obsessives since 2016.
Example
The crust tastes like bread because the shop mills its own grain, which is the whole argument for ordering the plain slice first.

Frequently asked questions
What makes Scarr's different from a regular slice joint?
House-milled flour. The crust tastes like bread with character rather than a neutral cheese delivery system.
When should I go to Scarr's?
Weekday afternoons are calmest. Friday and Saturday nights run late with a scene, which is its own kind of fun.
Should I get a slice or a whole pie at Scarr's?
A whole pie if you are two or more, since it saves rejoining the line for seconds. Solo visitors do fine with a plain slice at the counter.
